The Effect Of Military Deployment On The Parents Of Those Deployed, Ashley Hinkamper, Cody Carson, Erica N. Johnson
Counselor Education and Counseling Psychology Research Exchange Conference

Whether deployment is to an area where there is substantial risk of injury or death or to an area without such risk will be assessed. Parents’ personal distress, efforts to cope with stress, and attitudes towards mental illness and its treatment will be evaluated. We hypothesize that parents of those deployed in danger zones will report greater distress, and that distress will be influenced by media exposure and …

The Effects of Smoking and Memory in Posttraumatic Stress Disorder: A Proposal
By Kathryn E. Kalvoda and Andrew D. Ronquillo
Many individuals suffer with high stress and life-changing memories. These memories are hard to erase and many are forced to deal with them for the rest of their lives.

Announcements And Plenary Address – A Dance Of Transparencies: Researching Identity And Identifying Researchers, Ronald J. Chenail

This area of research is also fraught with controversy as researchers and their research participants struggle with gender, sexual, cultural, brand, product, customer, and corporate identities and the methodological and ethical decisions entailed in studying such phenomena. An associated concern is how do we …
